I did some research on other forums and found no complaints except some just prefer to tie directly to the leader with a knot.

I like knots, They are cheap and I have never dropped one.I now return you to the Dan and Fox show already in progress

lol...me too. Takes a few seconds to tie a surgeons with a long tag for a dropper. In addition, everyone should clip off your tippet, add fresh line and retie knots every so often (even with a tippet ring) as the knots weaken and the tippet gets abraded with use.
